Gulf Air plans to introduce qualified chefs onboard flights for its first class service, to provide customers with the choice, quality and individual attention associated with five-star hotels and fine dining restaurants, according to the carrier’s press release.
As a first phase in changes to re-establish Gulf Air’s position in the region, Gulf Air President and Chief Executive James Hogan said that the chefs were being recruited from five-star hotels and restaurants from all over the world.
Gulf Air will also introduce a ‘Dine on Demand’ dining option on night flights, whereby in-flight chefs will take orders from an expansive menu, which will then be finished and served at a chosen time, allowing customers greater flexibility to rest and dine when they desire.
The in-flight chefs will be introduced initially on routes to London from September 6, however, there are plans to expand the ‘Restaurant in the Sky' service across the network, including flights to Paris and Frankfurt. — (menareport.com)
